<p>I was looking at evxcr_repl and it it looks like all it dos is create a cargo crate, write the user input, and store previous input in a HashMap. This is obviously quite slow, but it is pretty much the only Rust REP. Is there any work going on regarding a Rust REPL? I know there was discussion regarding using miri or cranelift as a backend, but it looks like the conversation died off....</p>

<p>@alexreg was working on a rust REPL that would use miri or cg_clif as backend, but they disappeared before releasing any source: <a href="https://github.com/rust-lang/compiler-team/issues/213">https://github.com/rust-lang/compiler-team/issues/213</a></p>
